Collection notes
I collected what appear to be three different acrocystis sedges at this site: CJR 2885 (thin leaved cespitose species with small copious perigynia--nigromarginata?); 2886 (rhizomatous thin-leaved species with few perigynia, but they are large--pensylvanica?); and 2887 (wide-leaved short cespitose species, very red bases, widely-spaced spikelets--novae-angliae?). I don't have any confidence in any of these determinations.
